So it seems to be a better machine than the turbo and 1k. Time will tell

I have since rethought the turning the head and backing into pick up the hives and when a lid or hive falls off not noticing it until it is too late because you are paying attention to the road ahead. Or hitting a bump that translates into the back end catapulting upward. Not sure the back dealeo is a good one. If I am going to spend a couple grand to have a half solution then I should just pony up and get a 1k. I think it will be happening this spring.

Get yourself a Gehl loader. More versatile. Easier to operate. I have used swingers and bobcats and Gehl are the best. U can put on a mast or crazy wheel. 2 hand controls. No foot levers. U can stack dimes with it the controls are so good. Give them a look.

Re: Bobcat with forklift mast, or without, vs Hummerbee!!!!!!!!

lake thompson honey: Hey I have a new quick attach adapter plate that fits a Gehl and converts it to fit Bobcat attachments that I was going to try to fit on my Toyota loader but I don't know if I am going to do it b/c I was thinking about putting a mast on instead.
PM if you would be interested?

I sure like my Toyota loader but have thought about a Swinger or Hummer but can't justify the cost in my small operation!
